Study Summary

Rehabilitation of functional movements after spinal cord injury (SCI) requires commitment and engagement to the processes of physical therapy. Outcomes may be improved by techniques that strengthen cognitive connections between users and physical therapy exercises. The investigators will investigate combinations of virtual reality and innovative wearable technology to accelerate rehabilitation of hand grasp and reach. These devices use multi-sensory feedback to enhance the sense of agency, or feelings of control, and better train movements during physical rehabilitation exercises. The investigators will measure the effect of these devices on improving the speed, efficiency, and accuracy of performed movements in Veterans with SCI.

Primary Outcome

Percent change in time (seconds) to achieve secure grasp. Lower time is better.

Interventions

  • DEVICE Cognition glove
  • DEVICE Sensory brace
